Sorry did not realise you had not order from OCUK. Still waiting for my order to be delivered and was having a minor panic that something else was now an issue.

Not really, looking at BF1 with all the CPUs including Ryzen at pure FPS it looks like this. Look at pure FPS in a modern game at 720p and 1080p with the Titan XP shows the AMD 8370 ahead of the 2500K in both resolutions.
Where as years ago the AMD FX chip did lose in the vast majority of games compared to the 2500k

Looking at their entire suite of game benchmarks for 720p and 1080p the FX chip is still ahead of the 2500K, and on average 3 FPS behind the 2600K overall.
Yeah you'll have to wait a month or two just to see all the models have decent availability, I'm hoping by that time most of the "quirks" will have been fixed and RAM runs @3200mhz easy.

I think he already did when he cut the heat pipes off a GPU and then wa dumbstruck the temps reached into the 90's

Hahaha wow.
Our thoughts are with you bruh

What board is this?

If your on crosshair you need to use docp at around 130 bus speed. 3K then fine 2x2 single sided dimms.
The one advantage of the delay is that I've been able to change my pre order from the troublesome Crosshair vi to the gigabyte k7. Hopefully arriving sometime this week

Thanks for that. I had 5 different DOCP options. The third one resulted in DDR4-3000 with bus speed 125.
Just before I set that, I got a CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT BSOD. No idea what that means
OcUK Staff
Asrock Taichi I am testing now actually.
Be interested to see results from that!
Looking forward to your results! Are they due in this week for those that pre-ordered?
Like you say, if the baseline changes then percentage differences are meaningless but if the scores are actually different (e.g. by using a more modern suite of games) then it's fine to compare those numbers. Or maybe he means comparative performance, i.e. the difference between the two older CPUs compared to the most recent ones is smaller than it once was.
I've done exactly the same.The one advantage of the delay is that I've been able to change my pre order from the troublesome Crosshair vi to the gigabyte k7. Hopefully arriving sometime this week

I wish i had done the same now. This board is an absolute nightmare. It does not like any memory settings I use, and doesn't even post with the latest bios.
Soldato
Just waiting for my board, RAM and case now. Should be here by 12pm tomorrow
